Swings fist at cam...

Here are three fantastic storyboard panels from the season one She-Ra episode "The Unicorn King" featuring She-Ra punching the screen! This was the first time in the series that we would see She-Ra punching the screen, thus storyboard artist Keith Tucker indicates to the layout artists and animators to refer to the animation of He-Man punching the screen!

Awesome! I love that scene, when Hordak's Attack Bot fires at She-Ra, to which she replies, in a firm manner, "That's not nice!" What was the Attack Bot thinking when it charged towards She-Ra, as she smashed it to pieces?! :)

A shame that the footage, described here, was edited in "Sweet Bee's Home," during the scene where both He-Man and She-Ra break into The Fright Zone ... Would have been nice to experience the entire animation She-Ra throwing her punch, once again. Oh well.

This was an interesting prelude to the final animation ... Great stuff!
